Go With A Broker Who Knows
As a broker, we have the advantage of tailoring your coverage as opposed to only having one company option. Are the services of a broker beneficial for your personal and business insurance?
Q: What is the difference between and agent and a broker?
A: Although you have the advantage of being able to communicate with a local representative, an agent is captive, meaning, he or she represents only one company. A broker on the other hand, provides you local service and the added strength representing several insurance carriers.
Q: What is a direct writer?
A: These insurance outlets typically provide no local service and conduct their business over the internet or telephone.
Q: Do brokers cost more to the consumer?
A: Direct writers sometimes tout that they have done away with the middleman. One popular direct writer has an annual advertising budget of more than $800,000,000.00 plus the added expense of labor to replace the service normally handled by the local broker's office.
Q: Who handles my day-to-day service and claims assistance?
A: Your local community broker would be your initial and ongoing contact for claims and service assistance. Direct writers service your needs over the phone or internet.
